- I'm all for responsible, honest critiques of Christians, but I'm seeing folks on here literally claim no Christians personally care for an "unwanted" child. Fam, about half of the refugee resettlement agencies are Christian. Christians essentially invented the idea of a hospital
- Christians: The crisis is not that you are politically homeless. The crisis is that we ever thought we could make a home in politics at all.
- "But while I'll be a Democratic candidate, I'll be America's president." -@JoeBiden
- That line from Michelle Obama--about young people wondering if the adults in their life ever really believed what they always said they did--is something I hear from young Christians all around the country in a particularly potent and personal way.
- CNN focus group. Reporter: "Why did you laugh when Trump said he has a great temperament?" Voter: "Uhhhh because his temperament is awful."
- I just want folks to pause and think about the message this sends to children who are alive today, in foster care, about their lives and value. Don't tell me you care for the outcast, those without privilege, the vulnerable, and then tweet something like this.
- Christians: The crisis is not that you are politically homeless. The crisis is that we ever thought we could make a home in politics at all.

- Replying to @joshuadubois and @GeorgeFoster72Barbara is not about to let YOUR limitations become HER limitations
- Politics is causing great spiritual harm in this country, and a big reason for that is people are going to politics to get their spiritual and emotional needs met.
- can someone please just explain to the trucker convoy heading for D.C. that now is not a good time.
